In few minutes (sorry for not announcing earlier). The 2nd GlobalVoices summit will start. GVO Editors, bloggers and journalists will be participating.

You can join online by listening to the live webcast, check the live blog and live transcript. You can also ask questions on IRC.

Global Voices Online (GVO) won the best English language journalistic award in the 2005 Deutsche Welle International Weblog Awards!

Global Voices is a remarkable blog that brings the voices of international bloggers to the attention of the rest of the world. It is an organization launched from the Berkman Center for Internet and Society at the Harvard Law School. Founded by Ethan Zuckerman and Rebecca MacKinnon.
